I'm a relatively new recreational pilot. I have a Mavic 2 Pro and live near a airport and because of that can not fly my drone above 200 feet. I have a FAA Recreational Pilots License and have been using LAANC to get permission before flying near my home. My question is (remember I'm a novice at...

I've had a Mavic 2 Pro for several months and am finally getting a chance to fly it now that the weather is a bit drier (live in the Pacific Northwest and it rains all the time). I was out in the coast range of Oregon flying in a clearcut and was having a hard time tracking my drone when there...

DoomMeister Thank you for the information and links. The DJI self unlocking seemed too simple and from day one just didn't seem complete enough. Guess when I was registering the drone I should have done more reading on the FAA website. Is there an up to date tutorial anyplace that would walk a...

I have a Mavic 2 Pro and have been using the DJI Self Unlocking as a recreational pilot since I live near an airport and it has worked flawlessly. I am relatively new to drones and have only been flying for a few months so I want to make sure I am doing what is required. When applying for the...

Really cool! I'm just getting started with a Mavic 2 and this is going to make it much easier to get some of the shots I'm after. Looking forward to actually flying my first generated spiral mission. Thank You!

I live in NE Hillsboro near the Orenco Max Station and one block from the Orenco Woods Nature Park. I did some online research to see if there was any rules governing drone use in any of the city parks. I searched the City of Hillsboro Parks website and city municipal code concerning parks and...

My daughter has a Friesian horse and has asked me to take some video of her riding the horse at the beach this summer. My plan is to gradually acustom the horse to the drone starting at the barn where she boards him. I live in NW Oregon and it rains all the time so I'm thinking to start the...

Have you tried a SM-T713 and couldn't get it to work?

I also posted this in the Mavic 2 Pro section. I recently purchased a new Mavic 2 Pro and have the DJI Go 4 app loaded up on my Samsung Galaxy S9 phone. Seems to be working just fine but I'm 65 and seeing anything on the S9 screen without reading glasses is very difficult. I've been researching...

Not sure if I should post this here or in the software section. I recently purchased a new Mavic 2 Pro and have the DJI Go 4 app loaded up on my Samsung Galaxy S9 phone. Seems to be working just fine but I'm 65 and seeing anything on the S9 screen without reading glasses is very difficult. I've...

Northeast Hillsboro.

I don't own a Mavic yet but am in the market for one. My one and only drone at this time is a SwellPro Splash Auto V1.1 which is waterproof and can actually be flown underwater. Being from Oregon (rains all the time) the SwellPro has been a good one to get started with but lacks many of the...
